Underdog Lyrics
She's an underdog
Lives next door to me
She's always heard, "You won't amount to anything."
And it kills me to watch the agony behind her eyes
Tragic the way people pass her by
But now I realize that...
Everyone sees her
But nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow
For a better tomorrow
She hates it
But she takes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
She's original
Never trying to fit in
She's got a way to always go against the grain
Oh yeah
Someday they'll see how beautiful she really is
I know the last will be the first
The table's gonna turn, cause...
Everyone sees her
But nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow
For a better tomorrow
She hates it
But she fakes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
Maybe she'll be in a movie
Maybe she'll be in a song
Better pay her some attention
Before she's gone
She's an underdog
Yeah
She means the world to me
Yeah
Everyone sees her
But nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow
For a better tomorrow
She hates it
But she makes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world (x2)
Lives next door to me
She's always heard, "You won't amount to anything."
And it kills me to watch the agony behind her eyes
Tragic the way people pass her by
But now I realize that...
But nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow
For a better tomorrow
She hates it
But she takes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
Never trying to fit in
She's got a way to always go against the grain
Oh yeah
Someday they'll see how beautiful she really is
I know the last will be the first
The table's gonna turn, cause...
But nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow
For a better tomorrow
She hates it
But she fakes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
Maybe she'll be in a song
Better pay her some attention
Before she's gone
Yeah

She screams in her pillow
For a better tomorrow
She hates it
But she makes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world (x2)

I LOVE this song.
This is totally my favorite song in the world. I can totally relate to it. Basically everyone sees the girl, maybe they even know her and stuff but they don't bother to befriend her or anything basically the reason nobody knows her. Or maybe they see the mask she uses but they don't see her real self so they don't know her. And she screams in her pillow and everything because she hates being seen but not known. She wants to basically no longer hide behind her mask but she's afraid to do so for fear of rejection or being shunned, maybe more than she already is. But maybe one day because of her trials and tribulations she'll change the world with her acting because she can relate to the character or emotion of the moment therefore she can truly show the emotion perfectly or she'll write songs that everyone can relate to. So basically one day she'll destroy her mask and change the world.
This song sounds like it's about me.
:)
I think this song is about me too. lol
I think this song is about me too. lol
I always say this song is my theme song. it's about a girl who is always put down and not really noticed, but someday she will shine and make a difference in the world.
this is one of their older songs but they're bringing it back to put on their new cd just like they did with when you look me in the eyes............i heard they were going to put 1 or 2 of their old songs on ach new cd :)
peace.love.jonas.
i thought it was "she hates it, but she knows it"
underdog will not be on their new cd.
they did do a revised version of it at a few shows. but it's not going to be on the new album.
awesome awesome brilliant song.
MY FAVORITE SONG...EVER!!! I'd write a novel about it, but I doon't have the tiem...the first time I heard it I was just completelt SPEECHLESS!!!
I posted a comment on thier myspace a couple years ago and it was about hoe boys don't like me at school and how I'm made fun of by other people so I'm starting to think that they saw it and decided to sing this song at their concert. lol
OK this probably sounds kinda sad.
